Undertaking Love by Kat French
4.0
I didn't think that I would like this novel. Sure, it sounded quirky and fun. Sure, it had a pretty cover which attracted me like a moth to the flame. But deep down inside, wasn't it a bit flaky and cliched? Didn't it read like a chick-lit how to?
Totally.
But I still enjoyed it.
The 'set-ups' and the misunderstandings made my toes curl and my brain scream in frustration. The mismatched couples made me cringe as I prayed that they would sort their lives out. the characters were so pat and perfect and stereotyped for the genre.
But did it make me laugh? Quite a few times. Did it make me cry? Several times. Did I care about each and every character? 100%.
More importantly, did I close the book two hours after starting it with a smile on my face? Abso-bloody-lutely.
